a far better job of showing the human side of the army than any spin doctor it occurred under the military code of justice the offense nothing could sergeant and above which is that in fact any conduct which is unbecoming an i.d.f. soldier would would would before really potentially at least expose you to criminal liability could actually find yourself in jail but it's not always fun and games neither is it so clear cut the i.d.f. told r.t. that a sniper who posted this image was dealt with appropriately it's the problem of free speech i don't see how you can control it i don't think that the dancing is abusing power i do think that putting your sniper a more in innocent person is an abuse of power and i think this is that it's think that the army should do gil you gave was an officer with the paratroopers unit he says he'd brief his soldiers regularly about what they could and could not post online but many were careless or childishly unaware of the impact one clip could
